ASTROLOGYYYY~

It's cheap, trashy entertainment. Though taking any astronomy class of even the lowest level (like I'm doing right now!) pretty much shows why astrologists are pulling it all out of their butts.

Where was I?

Libra! A big promotion is just around the corner for someone much more talented than you; Laughter is the very best medicine, remember that when your appendix bursts next week~

Scorpio!~...

I think astrology is pretty dumb.

I agree that some parts of astrology are a little silly, I don't take my horoscopes seriously but I still like to read them. Birth charts though, in all my experiences with them, have been surprisingly accurate a surprising amount of times.

Try the ones on the site, I sayyyy~

I like to read mine, roogle's, and LN's horoscopes from the student newspaper every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. It's fun to see if they correlate, but mostly they don't. Then, I do the sudoku.

That site said some things that were somewhat relevant and a lot of things that weren't, so I stopped reading.

The best astrology I've ever seen was a book about astrology and sex!

I like to compare my horoscope to how my day went :p

I think I completely messed it up some how. Whatever I put in didn't describe me well at all. Conjunctioned with the fact that the stuff kinda went over my head. Whatever. Most of the time that I read that kinda stuff I'm pretty apathetic, anyway.

Using "astrology" to give a depiction of someone's personality is on the same intellectual level as those online quizzes made by 13-year-olds which profess to do the same based on what colors you like.

And by "same intellectual level," I mean that both are based on not one shred of empirical evidence and a whole bunch of nonsense.

Astrology? No, thank you. :)

Now numerology, that's where it's at. :rolleyes2

That natal chart database thing doesn't have the city I was born in. =(

Well anyways, I've always thought Astrology was fun to read. I don't really believe in it like the absolute truth or anything, but I don't think it's completely fake.

I certainly don't believe Astrology has any ability to influence or predict my future, but I do use it as a valuable suggestion. I look at my Chinese and Greek Zodiacs and see the type of person they suppose me to be and the type of people I'm supposed to associate with or avoid. Sometimes, I heed the info I get, sometimes I do the opposite. My horoscope once said that my inspiration would dry up in the following month and I waited several months before I even felt a hint at this. I rely on my horoscope as a type of narrow psychological profile that gives me miniscule advice which I sometimes take. But then again, I consider myself to be an adept psyche-analyst and I interpret astrological horoscopes differently than the casual believer.

Our little planet is under the influence of a star.

It's fun. And it often seems accurate to me, although that could be the power of self-suggestion.

I don't see any way for it to be possible, but it hasn't been completely disproven. I enjoy it.

my horoscope today says I'm bound to find some money today. I did get some nice pictures in the mail, but I don't think that's what it meant. It was pretty explicit about money.

I tried it and it almost became scary when it was dead accurate but then it got the rest totally wrong. Fun to read, but I don't believe in Astrology.
